Gentlemen (and the occasional lady?)
According to the wehrmacht awards ek1 page:
has anyone made a serious attempt to name as many of the recipients as possible? I would imagine it would entail:
* Going to the bundesarchives and taking note of every recipient's name in their collection of certificates
* Posting sites such as this asking for everyone to kindly send the names of the recipients and units of the ek1 if they have a certificate on them or proven providence.
Do you reckon it'll be worth the exercise?
I am looking for a format like this:
Surname**Vorname**Dienstgrad*Dienststellung*Verlei hdatum*Orden
Abbas****Horst****Hauptmann*6./AR 114****11.04.42****DKiG( Heer )
Cheers
